NJS takes a ride on the HoopBus for NBA Allstar weekend.
HOOPBUS "Show Bay Love" 2025
This past NBA All-Star weekend, the Hoopbus hit the streets of the Bay Area for the "SHOW BAY LOVE" tour, an inspiring journey celebrating the power of basketball and community. From Oakland to San Francisco, Vallejo to Santa Cruz this iconic yellow school bus-turned-mobile-hoop brought people together for unforgettable moments of unity, culture, and hoops.
Hoopbus is more than just a traveling basketball showcase—it’s a movement. Founded on the belief that basketball can be a force for good, Hoopbus tours cities worldwide, using the game to bridge communities, spread joy, and advocate for social change. NJS was tasked with creating Uniforms and Jerseys for events throughout the week. Inspired by some of our favorite uniforms from the past eras of NBA basketball in the bay we created a reversible uniform paying homage to the RUN TMC and WE BELIEVE eras.
SUMMARY
SHOW BAY LOVE: Impacting the Bay Area
During the SHOW BAY LOVE tour, the Hoopbus made stops at local schools, parks, and community centers, creating a space where kids, athletes, and basketball lovers could come together to celebrate the game.
